- Comment on North Korea sent me abroad to be a secret IT worker. My wages funded the regime 1 day ago:
They are reporting on what he told them. Would you expect a news outlet to be able to somehow verify the testimony of a prisoner of war before reporting on it?
The title and article both make it clear that they are reporting his story.
Additionally, the rest of the article - including the ones before and after your quote - discusses numerous cases of other similar scenarios.

I’d imagine you’d need a browser that has developer tools, which is far less common on mobile. A simpler solution would be to use a separate app that just takes the page URL and downloads the video for you, such as this one: f-droid.org/en/packages/com.junkfood.seal/
- Comment on ‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’: inside the rise of couples location sharing 1 week ago:

There are plenty of options for both software and OS, so not every combination is going to have the same level of support as Windows, where every user gets the same experience.

- Comment on France imposes smoking ban on beaches, parks 5 weeks ago:
